I am working on a project where I need to communicate with a virtual comport via bluetooth on a pocket pc 2003. I know Microsoft has a Bluetooth api, but it is only for c++. From the looks of the c++ code there are very few steps to getting a bluetooth serial port set up. Can anyone give me guidance on api/dll to use or vb code examples for the bluetooth api?? Any general help on starting a bluetooth app for a pocket pc with visual basic would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance for the help.

Maybe you should take a look at the 32feet[^] project.

Hi paulraj,
Can you share the code you use to call ShellExecuteEx?
Windows CE (and hence Windows Mobile) have no concept of a current working directory. So for APIs such as ShellExecuteEx you need to specify the full path to the file you want to display. An exception to this rule is that some APIs will automatically look in the \windows folder if a path is not specified.
Are you by chance asking ShellExecuteEx to open "paul" instead of "\temp\paul"?
Hope this helps,

Hi,
You can query the current battery details by using some Platform Invoke code to access a native system API called GetSystemPowerStatusEx2.
David Kline has a good example of how to do this via C# on his blog entry - "Is my device running on battery or AC?" available at http://blogs.msdn.com/davidklinems/archive/2005/02/10/370591.aspx[^]
With respect to the memory status. This would depend upon exactly which figure / memory statistic you want to obtain. Are you wanting to know the total RAM within your device, or the amount currently available to your application for example?
Hope this helps,

Hi
I am new to mobile applications and working on my first ever sample application.
Development environement .Net 2005
Target Mobile : k-Jam with windows 5.0
My Problems are the following.
1. The application is single form, So when I resize the form in design time and install on my PPC it always cover the complete screen instead of orignal size which is given while designing.
2. There is one textbox on my form, When It get focus I need to show the screen keyboard so user can write any thing using touch screen instead of using qwerty keyboard.
Any idea's
Regards

Do you want to have a Form with the "normal" - size, or an form wich is like a popup window?
To show the softkeyboard you have to create an inputpanel on your form.
Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.InputPanel myInputPanel = new Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.InputPanel();
then on the gotFocus of the Textbox
myInputPanel.Enabled = true;
that´s it

I have a couple of blog posts which might help with these issues.

This is by design. The Windows Mobile design guidelines suggest all application windows are fullscreen. You will notice this is how all the built in applications behave. I wouldn't suggest breaking this convention.
However if you do want to give it a go, take a look at a blog posting of mine titled "Creating non full screen forms and custom MessageBoxes" http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/134[^]. But the entire technique is rather fragile and not worth the effort in my opinion...
Rizwan Bashir wrote: 2. There is one textbox on my form, When It get focus I need to show the screen keyboard so user can write any thing using touch screen instead of using qwerty keyboard.
For this you should investigate the InputPanel control within the toolbox of the forms designer. A blog post of mine called "Manage soft input panel (SIP)" available at http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/42[^] may be of help. Especially the section titled "Automatic SIP Popup".

I have a Form with an maximized WindowState. When I open the Openfiledialog and select a File, wich i want to open in my program, the windowstate is no mor maxamized, but when i request the windostate from the system, it seems to be maxamized.
using (OpenFileDialog myOpenFileDialog = new OpenFileDialog())
{
myOpenFileDialog.InitialDirectory = "\\Storage Card\\";
myOpenFileDialog.Filter = "xml files (*.xml)|*.xml";
myOpenFileDialog.FilterIndex = 1;
DialogResult result = myOpenFileDialog.ShowDialog();
if (result == DialogResult.OK)
{
xmlPath = myOpenFileDialog.FileName;
if (activeProject != null)
activeProject.CreateAndOpenEmptyProject();
activeProject = TModelProject.getInstance();
//InitApplDate(xmlPath);
activeProject.open(xmlPath);
if (activeProject.xmlDoc == null)
{
MessageBox.Show("Error");
}
Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor;
VMain.SuspendLayout();
activeProject.Load();
activeProject.LoadAll();
vTreeView1.InitView(activeProject);
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default;
}
}
Can anybody help me?
Thx

Hello,
i just found the mistake.
I suspend the mainfrom but i forgot to resume it.
If you use this.SuspendLayout(); folowwing you have to use ResumeLayout();

Sounds like you need to pick up a good book and read about this. But the short version of the answer to your question is that you can create most common / every day type .NET Applications on a mobile device as well (even database driven).
